Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
      Daisy Perika is no stranger to eerie dreams, but when she has a nightmare, lives could be at stake. Convinced that her visions of a wisp-thin girl with blood dripping from her hands are omens, the old woman calls on her nephew, Charlie Moon.
 
A part-time tribal investigator and full-time Colorado rancher, Moon is often skeptical of his aunt’s mystical ways. And this time, much as he wants to believe her, Daisy just can’t get a clear vision of the girl’s face. Moon is ready to give up…until he gets a call about Sarah Frank. 
 
An Ute-Papago orphan that fits Daisy’s vision, Sarah seems to be involved in a very real murder. But by the time Moon crosses the border to investigate, he’s too late: Not only has Sarah vanished with a one-of-a-kind family heirloom, but Moon isn’t the only ones on her trail…

User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Blood of Dreams
Ten Charlies Moon stories and John Doss still keeps the high pitch that made us fans from his very first book. During my librarian days I always put John's books in the Kentucky collection, he is one of our finest writers no matter where he lives.
Charlie Moon has moved to full-time ranching, but Aunt Daisy has other plans for his time after she has a nightmare. Charlie has to cross state lines to follow her bidding when Sarah Frank, an Ute-Papago orphan disappears with a valuable heirloom and is suspected of murder. Aunt Daisy has other plans for the child. Both Charlie and Aunt Daisy are vivid characters crafted by a master.
New to the series, get to reading and discover why the old-timers and Publishing house's Weekly put James D. Doss as one of the best.
Nash Black, author of SINS OF THE FATHERS and TRAVELERS.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Charlie Moon is always terrific
As always, the Charlie Moon books are great reading. Doss does his expected outstanding job of bringing Charlie, Aunt Daisy, and a cast of character to life. His descriptions of the desert and canyons of Ute country are so real you can smell the sage.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Stone Butterfly
Stone Butterfly tells a story of greed, murder and betrayal. Charlie Moon and his aunt become involved and things start to heat up. I kept wondering how it was going to end and I was in for a surprise when it did. I never caught the ever so subtle clues. I can't wait to read the subsequent one!
I'm a fan of James Doss and love all the books he's written. Charlie Moon and his aunt Daisy are two of my all-time favorite characters. They are old friends I get to visit with every time Doss brings out a new novel in the Charlie Moon Series. The stories are full of humour as well as mystery and have yet to disappoint me.





Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Too clever for its own good
I've read all of Doss's Charlie Moon mysteries but I thought this one was trying to be too clever for it's own good. At times the characters seemed to be babbling. The plot was devised in such a way that the reader could not figure out the story until the very last twist, and even that left quite a few questions unanswered...(which I can't list in order not to spoil the read for prospective readers.)The book left me frustrated and ready to write to the author to get him to fill in the holes. Not one of Doss's best by a long shot.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Probably the best Moon story yet.
From beginning to end this held my interest. His previous book was good, but it does not hold a candle to the Stone Butterfly.
